Beer, revisited

Awesome. Try some New England style IPA's while there. Good stuff, had a few (too many) while in the US last month, just the West Coast versions thereof.
Couple of crackers that I’ve had recently :
Skinners - Lushingtons Summer Pale : Really sharp and citrusy, real hot weather stuff. ( don’t often get Cornish beer down here, so a nice change )
Bayou - from Speke’s Big Bog Brewery : American IPA, quite strong at 5%, really dry and a really nice pint.

Might have been already mentioned as I am late to this thread but Untapped is a pretty cool beer app for beer lovers. I suggest giving it a go

A couple of pints in the White Star yesterday evening. A nice session beer, very drinkable. Would have had a few more if there hadn't been a drunken fiftieth birthday party, complete with swaying menopausal women singing out of tune, and dancing drunkenly to Tina Turner.

I`ve had quite a few from Otter, when I`ve been on hols in the South West over the years. Their beers seem to be generally very good and it`s nice to see beers from the South West making their way up here.

lol i think you need to cut down mate...
I've been having a few of their Hinky Punks as of late and it's a nice pint, although it is quite a distinguished hopped taste which I know puts some people off.
Had their Blonde Bach as well but found the taste peculiar and vinegary. I presumed it had turned but was told it was a new barrel and was fine... so who knows?
All their beers seem to be quite hoppy, although the tang dies down after your first pint.

It seems to be a trend in recent years for more hoppier beers to be brewed ; I wonder why that is ? I prefer the less hoppier variety, and am looking forward to the lengthening nights and the winter warmers.
A nice stout, porter or a decent mild can't be beaten on a autumnal or wintry evening.
@summerisle - tonight’s offering in my local, another from Otter.
Almost like like an IPA mixed with a traditional darker ale - very nice.

When I used to work in Dorset Otter beers were always a good option, bar their bog standard bitter, which was as weak as the pound.
Brimstage Oyster Catcher Stout, immediately springs to mind !
